====== Ratting ====== 

=== Fraternity and Winter Coalition Communal Space ===
== PVE Ratting Rules ==

Core Rules 
  * No Site Calling: Calling out anomalies in chat is no longer required, with the exception of AOE. **Ratting channels will no longer be used** Use local or another method for communication instead of ratting channels.   
  * Priority. All rat sites operate on a strictly "First Come, First Served" (FCFS) basis.
  * Haven Priority:
    * AOE fleets (Smartbombers and Thunderchild or Stormbringer) hold the highest priority for Havens.
    * If an AOE fleet is present, conventional ratters in local must yield the Haven.
    * If two or more AOE fleets are present in local, pilots are encouraged to coordinate via private chat to avoid collision/conflict.
  * Ship Efficiency & Multiboxing:
    * Low-efficiency ships (e.g., Vexors) are reserved only for pilots with insufficient skills (low SP).
    * Multiboxing these slow ships are prohibited, as it negatively impacts the system overall spawn rate.
  * Resource Allocation (Crowded Systems): In cases of overcrowding or insufficient system resources, pilots must follow the Alliance Recommended Model.  
    * Ishtars (CN call YST) run Hubs.
    * Marauders run Sanctums.
    * AOE fleets run Havens.
  * Enforcement: Any behavior deemed to be impeding another pilot rating will result in an immediate docking ban followed by a kick, once confirmed by Alliance Diplo.

Communication Examples 
  * Effective Communication  
    * Noraus: AOE +1, rock haven priority.
    * 1 (Copy/Acknowledged).
  * Not-Effective Communication
    * Tang: AOE +1, rock haven priority.
    * Noraus: I am in an Ishtar, and I refuse to yield.
    * Result: The Ishtar warps into the AOE fleet and is destroyed. No SRP will be provided for this incident.
  * Exploiting/Griefing Example
    * Scenario: A Haven is open locally, but an AOE pilot deliberately competes for other anomalies (e.g., a Hub) while "holding" the Haven hostage so others cannot run it.
    * Tang: Noraus, you aren't running the Haven with your AOE, can I take it?
    * Noraus: No.
    * Action: In such cases, please submit chat logs and screenshots. Verified incidents will be penalized according to Enforcement Rule #5.

PVE SRP (Ship Replacement Program) 
  * AOE Liability: Casualties caused by AOE fleets are considered "no fault" (no liability) unless the action was intentional or malicious. No compensation is required.
  * Violation Liability: Any losses resulting from rule violations must be SRP (paid for) by the offending pilot, barring special circumstances.
  * Dispute Resolution: If losses occur due to a dispute and private negotiation fails, please contact an Alliance Diplo for arbitration.
